I agree whole-heartedly about Ms ...Thank you, sir. I agree whole-heartedly about Ms Steinfeld being a lead actor but, as you say, the lead role is always a more hotly contested Oscar than Supporting. Furthermore, no one remembers whether you won for lead or for supporting (or for eight minutes of screen-time) but simply that you won. <br /><br />She is now (and will forever be) at the very least 'Oscar Nominee Hailee Steinfeld'.<br /><br />Thing is ... Everyone does there best work in a Coen film. I suspect, for a lot of actors, simply getting the call is accolade enough.<br /><br />Feral was something else and, in typical Coen manner, there wasn't a word of explanation. He just is what he is.Cellulordhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14673507296965428476noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4611043893536637860.post-71284500824598609852011-02-21T11:02:42.240+00:002011-02-21T11:02:42.240+00:00Excellent review m'lord, of an excellent film....Excellent review m'lord, of an excellent film.<br /><br />Why Hailee Steinfeld is up only for best supporting when she is unquestionably the film's lead makes less sense than the plot of A Serious Man (Perhaps to avoid the Portman juggernaut?). A simply amazing performance that makes Mattie one of the best female protagonists in recent memory.<br /><br />My other favourite character in the film was Feral, an outlaw in Ned Pepper's gang, who's only lines of dialogue consisted of animal noises.
